The investigation of characteristic databases in 22 domestic colleges or universities of traditional Chinese medicine showed that the information resources have not been fully developed and the developed databases of tradi-tional Chinese medicine lacked of deep hierarchies.It was pointed out that updating their contents and deepening their hierarchies are the developing orientation for the characteristic databases of traditional Chinese medicine.

Objective:To collect and analyze the quality control data of ventilator, so as to apply these statistical data to guide the maintenance and management of ventilator.Methods: The displayed value and monitoring value of the tidal volume, respiratory frequency, inspiratory oxygen concentration, inspiratory pressure level and positive end expira tory pressure (PEEP) under different setting of 50 using ventilators in hospital were collected by using PF-300 gas analyzer, and then each parameter was analyzed as classification.Results: The total quality rate of ventilators was 80%, the ranking of quality rate as different brand was: brand B>brand A>brand C, and it was as different department: department 5>department 4=department 3>department1>department2, and the quality rates of less than 3 years and more than 3 years were 87% and 77%, respectively, as service life of ventilator. And the ranking of quality rates as parameters of ventilator was: PEEP=respiratory frequency >peak pressure>tidal volume >oxygen concentration. It was as accuracy of monitoring: brand A>brand C>brand B. It was as stability of monitoring: brand A>brand B=brand C. On the other hand, it was as the accuracy of displayed value: brand A>brand B>brand C, while it was as the stability of displayed value: brand A>brand C>brand B.Conclusion: The analysis of quality control data only suits to the ventilator which is used in our hospital. The engineer can targeted to strengthen the ventilator maintenance work and improve the quality and safety of equipment, so as to give the better service for patients according to quality control data of using ventilators in hospital.

Objective To determine mitochondria-associated signaling pathway on cell apoptosis in Leptospira interrogans infected murine mononuclear-macrophages. Methods A cell apoptotic model of L. interrogan serogroup Icterohaemorrhagiae strain Lai inducing apoptosis of murine mononuclear-macrophage line (J774A. 1) was established. Pathological changes of mitochondria in the infected cells were observed under transmission electron microscope. Mitochondrial potential and reactive oxygen species(ROS) levels in the infected cells were detected using JC-1 staining method and DCFH-DA fluorescent probe, respectively,and caspase-8/-9 activities in the infected cells were measured using commercial kits. and the apoptosis block effects of caspase inhibitors were determined by flow cytometry. Apoptosis in the infected cells and ap-optosis-blocking effect by caspase inhibitors were detected by flow cytometry. Western blot assay was adopted to examine the levels of cytochrome C (CytC) , AIF, EndoG and Smae in the mitochondria and cytoplasm.The transposition of either AIF or EndoG from the cytoplasm into cell nucleus was determined by immunoflu-orescence staining test. Results L. interrogans strain Lai could induce J774A. 1 cell apoptoais. In the in-fected cells, visible mitochondrial injury, declined mitochondrial membrane potential and elevated ROS level were presented. The activity of caspase-8 but not of caspase-9 was significantly increased. The caspase in-hihitors could not completely block the cell apoptosis. Both the AIF and EndoG was released from the mito-chondria and subsequently transferred from the cytoplasm into the nucleus in the infected cells. However,elevation of CytC level and Smac release in cytoplasm of the infected cells could not be found. Conclusion L.interrogans can induce apoptosis in the infected mononuclear-macrophage via AIF and EndoG belonging to caspase-independent pathway.

Background and purpose:Chemotherapy including anthracyclin and taxanes is one of the effective regimens for patients with advanced breast cancer, but 20%-30% patients do not achieve a satisfactory curative effect .At present, there is no unified standard second-line chemotherapy regimen for these patients. We studied the efficacy and toxicity of gemcitabin plus capecitabine in the treatment of the patients with advanced breast cancer who had failed in response to the treatment of anthracyclin and taxanes chemotherapy. Methods:Gemcitabin 1 000 mg/m2 iv infusion at d1,8 and capecitabine 950 mg/m2 po tid at d1-14.The interval between the two cycles was 3 weeks. The assessment for clinical effect and side effect was conducted for the patients with completion of 2 cycles of chemotherapy at least.Results:30 female patients were enrolled in this trial ,overall response rate was 46.7%,with 6.7% complete response (2/30)and 40% partial response (12/30). Stable disease was seen in 42.3%(13/30),and disease progression in 10% (3/30).Median time to progression was 9 months, and median overall survival was 12.5 months. The main toxicities were myelosuppression and hand-foot syndrome.Conclusions:Gemcitabin plus capecitabine is effective for the patients with advanced breast cancer who failed in the treatment of anthracyclin and taxanes chemotherapy, and its side effect is tolerable.

Objective: To explore heart rate variability (HRV) and arrhythmia in patients with resistant hypertension.
Methods: Our work included 3 groups:Resistant hypertension (RH) group, n=39, Non-resistant hypertension (NRH) group, the hypertension could be controlled by 1-3 medications, n=42 and Control group, composed of 40 healthy subjects. The 24h ambulatory blood pressure and electrocardiogram were monitored, the time-domain of HRV and arrhythmia parameters were compared among 3 groups which including standard deviation of all normal RR intervals (SDNN), standard deviation of the average normal RR intervals for all 5-min segments (SDANN), the mean of standard deviation of all 5-minute RR intervals (SDNN Index), the root mean square of the differences between adjacent R-R intervals (rMSSD) and the percentage of adjacent R-R intervals varied by more than 50 ms (pNN50).
Results: Compared with Control group, both RH and NRH groups showed decreased time-domain HRV parameters, all P<0.05. Compared with NRH group, RH group had the lower time-domain HRV parameters, all P<0. 05, while the rMSSD was similar between 2 groups (t=-1.5048, P=0.1364). The rates of arrhythmia in both RH and NRH groups were higher than Control group. The incidences of premature atrial contraction and atrial tachycardia were higher in RH group than NRH group, P<0.05, while the premature ventricular contraction, ventricular tachycardia and A-V block were similar between 2 groups, all P>0.05.
Conclusion: RH patients had decreased HRV and increased arrhythmia, especially with the higher incidence of atrial arrhythmia.

This paper was to explore the relationship between plasma omentin and obesity and insulin resistance in patients of polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS).The results showed that there were statistically significant differences in serum omentin levels among control group,PCOS-normal weight group,and PCOS-overweight group [(115.29 ± 33.92),(111.12 ± 34.50),and (42.85 ± 19.39) pg/ml,P＜ 0.05].Omentin were negatively correlated with homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance(HOMA-IR) and body mass index(BMI).In the multiple stepwise regression analysis,only omentin was negatively correlated with BMI.Omentin may be involved in the development of PCOS by affecting obesity.

OBJECTIVE:To observe the efficacy and safety of alprazolam by progressive dose increasing in the treatment of chronic tinnitus. METHODS:Totally 50 patients with chronic tinnitus were included. They were orally treated with Alprazolam tab-let 0.4 mg in the first 1 and 2 week(s),once every night at bedtime;0.4 mg in 3 and 4 weeks,once in the morning and once in the evening;0.4 mg in 5 and 6 weeks,three times a day. If the treatment of tinnitus was invalid,then the gradual withdrawl was conducted by twice a day for continuous 3 d,0.4 mg each time;then once a day,0.4 mg each time,for continuous 3 d. The re-sponders were maintained 12 weeks,and gradual withdrawal was conducted,and followed by follow-up for 3 months. The clinic data was observed,including the clinical efficacy,tinnitus disability scale(THI)score,visual analogue scale(VAS)score,tinnitus loudness(TI)and incidence of adverse reactions before and after treatment. RESULTS:The effective rate was 66.67%;after treat-ment,the scores of THI and VAS,and TI were significantly lower than before,with significant differences(P<0.05). There were no obvious adverse reactions during treatment. CONCLUSIONS:The alprazolam by progressive dose increasing has obvious effica-cy in the treatment of chronic tinnitus,with good safety.
